Our work is a collaboration between each unique client and our talented team. This collaboration is supported by an open studio that fosters direct and indirect partnerships to allow our projects to benefit from each designer’s unique passions and skills.

Ruhl | Jahnes has renewed its commitment to The 1+, a program of Public Architecture, which connects nonprofits with architecture and design firms willing to provide pro bono services to qualified non-profits. If every architecture professional in the U.S. committed 1% of their time to  pro  bono service, it would add up to 5,000,000 hours annually - the equivalent of a 2,500-person firm, working full-time for the public good.

ABOUT

We are both realists and dreamers. Our approach is renewable, sustainable, and site-specific. We maximize views, sunlight, and airflow. The process focuses on meticulous attention to detail and transparency in both practice and materials. 

Our portfolio includes a broad variety of work including custom homes, lofts, apartments, academic, and commercial spaces. 

The work is centered around New England but, thanks to technology, we’re able to design globally. We also have completed projects in Hawaii, St. Croix, North Carolina, Florida, and Ohio.

Our award-winning projects are inspired by our clients, their unique way of living, and the project’s specific site and natural features. We’re all stewards of a shared built environment. Our goal is to use our innovation and expertise to make that environment more delightful, one design at a time.
